Good morning. It’s Tuesday, November 18, 2014, and this is your first early morning digital briefing.
NEW PROGRAMMING + DEALS
International streaming service DramaFever launched DramaFever Minis, a series of several ten-minute episodes, which will debut daily. Beginning this week is Love Cells, which hit ten million views in Asia. Next to roll out are Doll House and After School: Lucky or Not Season 2.
Comedy collective JASH will premiere the variety show JASH Presents Rubberhead, hosted by Sarah Silverman, on Vimeo for $4.99. The show will feature Silverman-endorsed performances, including turns from Key & Peele, Nathan Fielder, John C. Reilly, Seth Rogen and Tim & Eric.
Concert video channel Baeble Media added two new collections from producers Moshcam and The Good Music Club. The content will increase Baeble’s concert library to 1,000 videos. “Our platform has grown to the point that it now needs more programming than our own teams can produce, so we are selectively looking to supplement our inventory with high-quality content from other creative artists,” CEO David Moffly said. Baeble is available for free online and on Smart TVs and OTT devices.
The search for the next great Latino boy band is on, and Simon Cowell‘s onboard. Auditions for Univision reality competition La Banda, developed with Cowell’s Syco Entertainment and Saban Brands and co-produced with FremantleMedia Latin America, are open at LaBandaoficial.com. Online casting will be followed by casting events across the U.S. and Puerto Rico in spring 2015, for a fall 2015 premiere.

MOBILE GAMING + APPS
Comcast NBCUniversal announced the results of its second hackathon, New Forms of Storytelling Driven by Technology, which took place Nov. 15-16. The grand prize winner and Fandango challenge winner was Top 3 I Want To See, a shareable representation of consumer’s top movie choices with an integrated movie ticket-purchase option. Additional winners were chosen in 14 categories, competing for up to $25,000 in cash and prizes, including a backstage tour of NBC’s The Voice.
ADVERTISING
WE tv launched a new campaign to encourage viewers to watch shows within three days of their premieres. These Watch W/In spots began airing on WE tv yesterday in sync with the latest episode of Tamar & Vince, featuring a code word to be entered on wetv.com to receive one of ten weekly swag bags as well as have a chance to win a grand prize sweepstakes. “We know many viewers today want to time shift their favorite shows and watch on their own timetables, but promoting urgent viewing within three days is meaningful for the network and our advertisers,” President Marc Juris said. Time-shifted or on-demand viewing within this window is counted in Nielsen’s C-3 ratings, translating into more money for networks from their advertisers.
Scripps Networks Interactive, Hearst Magazines and Citi announced a cross-platform marketing partnership for Food Network and HGTV digital and magazine platforms. The networks will create seasonal and native content, incorporating the launch of the Citi Double Cash Card.
